So? That makes me about as mad as when a corporation charters a private jet, when I think of all the people who would've liked to fly in that jet instead. You're really not selling me on the whole "Having nice things is despicable" argument. (Before you call that a strawman, I'll note that you're the one who put this action in the context of google's "Don't be evil" motto.)
Apparently if a boat is used for something besides its original purpose, no other boat can ever replace it. You know, cause boats and tasks mate for life.
I'm no free market fanatic, but it's like they're *trying* to misunderstand basic supply and demand.

I don't understand what anyone involved in this debacle wants google to do. Cease to exist? Develop transporter technology? In general, complaints about gentrification seem ridiculous. You can't complain about rich people outbidding you for your home any more than you can about immigrants stealing your jobs. What do you want, an act of congress to protect your economic niche? Hope you have a lobby.
No, there are 2^8 = 256 many/8s (fewer in practice, but whatever). Someone acquiring a/8 could be a big deal. There are the same number of/24s as OUIs.
The size of the prefix relative to the rest of the address is not the relevant factor. It's the scarcity of the prefixes that determines whether or not we care. By comparison, a 32-bit prefix out of a 128-bit address would not be news.
The load isn't on the front-end, it's on the enterprise service bus that talks to all the various government agencies, verifying eligibility status or whatnot. That, and the whole procedure is synchronous, so that it's trying to mix this validation with the user experience instead of sending an email afterwards to let you know whether it worked.

If it is just a matter of too many people on at once, I suppose they could assign people timeslots. But it'd be pretty insulting to be told that you can only buy health insurance between 2:00am and 4:00am on odd-numbered days (or if you prefer, even or odd depends on the last digit of your IPv4 address).
Not to single you out when there are many other offenders around, but comments like yours remind me of something I don't miss on slashdot. You open up with an unsound criticism of someone's word choice ("exponentially" has an informal non-technical definition that does not equate to geometric growth). You close with a sarcastic putdown. You sandwich good stuff in-between.
Did the person who told you this give you any more detail? Are you not engaging often enough, or are you not good at explaining yourself and listening during the times when you are engaged in conversation? The former is partly a matter of being friendly/comfortable with the people you're around. The latter is critical thinking -- what do I understand, what do they understand, will this choice of words be interpreted how I want, etc.
I've noticed that almost all patent commentary focuses on the title as if it were equivalent to the claimed material. Unfortunately, even such misleading summaries are probably more informative than attempting to actually read the claims section in their twisted glory.
Why would a plaintiff need to employ a judge when the law is on their side? Sometimes the injustice/corruption exists in the legislative branch of government, you know.
Nothing will ever replace Wing Commander 2 for me, and I'd almost be afraid to see someone try. There's just something completely intoxicating about the setting that I fear would almost certainly be lost in any remake.
I don't understand why we can't park the ISS at an higher orbit that won't decay. Is there any particular reason the ISS has to be so Near in Near-Earth-Orbit?
Open wikipedia in a tabbed browser. Go to a topic you're moderately interested in. Open every hyperlink you think you might like in a new tab. After about an hour, count up the tabs you have. If they're fewer than 10, something's very wrong with your sense of curiosity.
Make a list of the topics, then go to the library and lookup appropriate physical books that describe the same subjects. See how much you can learn by reading those while allotting yourself only the same amount of time you give yourself to read wikipedia. Compare how much you learn.
It really is irrelevant whether the garage is above or below ground, so long as it's not *at* ground level. If they don't get you going in they'll get you coming out.
I didn't RTFA, but it's not inconceivable that for a multi-level parking lot you could make a one-way descending lift that lowered a car at constant velocity instead of letting that potential energy go to waste through non-regenerative breaking.

And how do you intend to communicate over ethernet or wireless ethernet without a MAC address?
(Don't say IPv6.)

What'd you expect, to be treated with dignity?
Now strip naked and get on the probulator.
Great. Now I have to remember how to construct a fix point suspended environment to do physics. *Looks around* Anyone seen the Y-combinator?
I'm really not sure if this is a damned lie or a statistic.
What was that? I couldn't hear you over Tears for Fears playing in my head.

New orbiting material? It's one very large, predictable and trackable piece compared to the tens of thousands that we already have to deal with.

Publish?
It doesn't matter to you that actors in their late 20s playing teenagers aren't actually convincing?
Helen Thomas.
Have I demolished your mind yet?
IMO, a bigger travesty of justice has seldom if ever occurred in the United States.
Did you go to the public school system? I want to know who's responsible for not teaching you US history.

I learned physics in high school. I couldn't believe it took that long before someone explained how the world worked to me.
